How You Can Help

Your donations and support make a real difference in the lives of Knox County families.
Here's how you can get involved.

Donate Furniture

Kids Sitting in Chair

HopeNow Furniture Bank collects gently used furniture and household goods from donors and distributes them without charge to eligible Knox County families in need. You can request a furniture pickup online by completing the form below. If you do not have computer access, you can call our donor phone at (740) 358-2998, although our response may be slower.

Please note: We charge a $20 furniture pickup fee, payable by check or cash. Since we have no regular source of income, these fees enable us to cover truck and driver costs so that we might give the furniture free of charge to clients.

To confirm receipt of your pickup request, you will receive an email message (if applying online) or a phone call (if leaving a voice message) within two business days. You will be contacted again a day or two before the planned pickup date to set an appointment for pickup.

Drop Off Location

You can also drop off furniture at our warehouse, located at 1201 S. Main Street in Mount Vernon, just 1/4 mile south of Blubaugh's Body & Frame shop.

Drop Off Hours

Tuesdays: 1 – 3:30 p.m.
Thursdays: 10 a.m. – 12:30 p.m.
